Analysis
What drives eviction risk in Winnapaug
Severe burden reaches 15%. Those are renters paying half their income or more, and that is where non-payment filings originate. Against the Washington County average of 4.3, this tract reads safer for landlords by 1.3 points.
Cost burden runs 34% here against 40.2% across Washington County. Housing insecurity runs 4.6% against 14.2% nationally.
On the softer side, tenant-organizing strength reads 3/10. Court records carry 6 eviction filings across 2 observed years. Adults with no health insurance runs 3.6% against 11.3% nationally.
The worst year on record was 2015, when 2.8% of renter households were served. In a typical year about 1.8% of renter households face a filing. That is riskier than roughly 20% of the 84,120 US census tracts in this model.
Only 12% of units are renter-occupied. Rental comparables are thin; price a renewal off the nearest genuine rental sub-market rather than off surrounding sale prices. CDC social-vulnerability scoring puts the tract at 2.2/10. Statewide the RI average is 5.3, so this tract runs 2.3 points cooler.
Of its three components the household composition measure is the least pressured.
Tract-level figures come from the ACS 5-year release and are rebuilt whenever that, the court-record feed, or the statutory ledger behind the score changes.
